Abstract

As this author argues, challenges facing theological institutions, and particularly denominational seminaries, are multifaceted. Among these issues, funding is one of the most serious challenges.  Yet, the need for theological education remains; and in particular, the need for in-person times of study and formation for those training for Christian ministry.  Creativity and cooperation are needed, he posits, in order to continue running these institutions.
